I reckon they'll be getting paid a fair amount of dosh for that bundle. It's one of few ways google can tap into other markets apart from its standard web search.

Rumour is Google makes about $30 per toolbar user, so assuming adobe negotiated a rev share of 70-80% that would be about $24 per active installation.

"an Adope press release says." I think philipp you will like to correct the spelling. Secondly, it seems to me the deal like Google & Dell deal where Google Paid around billion to Dell so that they pre-install the google softwares in their PC's

Weird, I installed shocwave and flash players yesterday on my new laptop, and it asked me to include the Yahoo toolbar. (of course I said no).

No sign of Google toolbar...
